Ch4 Etruria and Rome, 1800 BCE–CE 400 Toga Pulla If the Roman citizen were in mourning, he would wear a darkened toga known as a toga pulla. It was worn mainly by those in mourning, but could also be worn in times of private danger or public anxiety. The Toga Pulla was sometimes used as a protest of sorts. When Cicero was exiled, the Senate resolved to wear togae pullae as a demonstration against the decision.
